17 Residents Displaced After Hartford Fire

HARTFORD — Seventeen people, including 10 children, were displaced after an apartment fire in the city's North End late Tuesday night, according to fire officials.

The fire on Bellevue Street was reported around 10:30 p.m. at 390 Bellevue St. Firefighters remained on scene throughout the night.

The cause of the fire had not been determined on Wednesday, but police said they do not suspect arson. Deputy Police Chief Brian Foley said several people were interviewed by Major Crimes arson detectives, but no arrests were made.

"At this point we have no physical evidence to suggest that this fire is an arson," Foley said.

Roads were closed in the area as multiple Hartford fire crews responded. Smoke could be seen rising from the building from some distance.
